Enhanced Discovery Days

The visit was one of the best educational trips I've taken my class on. It met all my needs and covered 3 of 4 national curriculum objectives, which is great. The staff were extremely knowledgeable and worked extremely well with the children; such a credit to the park. Overall it was a fantastic day! I will definitely book for next year when covering this unit again

Our Enhanced Discovery Days give your students a whole day of learning at Knowsley Safari. You will be looked after by one of our enthusiastic guides from start to finish. Children will enjoy everything the park has to offer and take part in some special activities which will enhance their day such as getting close to our birds of prey or taking a guided walking tour of the park. For further details please see the timetables below.
